125 neutral adjustment?

[Yosemite Sam]

It is more difficult to do on a NF, but it's all there is and has to be done and as mentioned above it can only be done on a tractor that is fully functional.

What is a little scary is the that the adjustment point is located in such a spot that in order to see/get to it, you gotta have the tractor raised and your head right there in front of the spinning tire. If I'm not mistaken it takes a 9/16" socket a 6" extension and a ratchet.

IIRC, loosen the bolts to the point where the bracket will slide (with some resistance) under the heads of the bolts. you can use a hammer and punch to tap the bracket up and you can use a large screwdriver to "pry" it down, I think you can get the blade of the screwdriver between the bracket and the head of the top bolt and twist the screwdriver (kinda like adjusting points).

I think one of the big things is, to make sure you have all of the other work done first... That way you only have to do it once.

FWIW, if you are dealing with a tractor that has much if any wear on the related parts, I don't think it is possible to get it adjusted perfectly. When you pull the lever back and push the pedal down, then push the lever forward and push the pedal down it almost always ends up in two different places. In a situation like this I always try to "split the difference" and call it good.

If this is your first time, you may want to choose a time when things are very calm and relaxed in the surrounding area of where you are working and that there are little or no distractions. If you stay calm, be patient and take your time, the job will go much smother and the end result will be much better.

Good luck.

Edit: Now that I think about it, Cub-n-bxrs is probably right about the heads of the bolts being 12 point, I'll also bet that the 12 point bolts are 7/16" or 1/2" and NOT 9/16" as I said earlier.
